In this episode I speak to Ajit Desai of the Bank of Canada – Canada’s central bank.

In our conversation, Ajit and I discuss how the Bank of Canada is using payments data in innovative ways to make macro predictions, and the outlook for central banks using alternative data.

In other news, I hope you can join me at Eagle Alpha’s Unbound event in New York on April 6th, where I will be co-hosting the Hackathon. Additionally if you’re in town on Tuesday and fancy joining for alternative data drinks at 5.30pm, get in touch with me on LinkedIn and I’ll let you know where our small group is meeting.
